Pakistan’s renewed commitment to strengthening its strategic economic partnership with China, particularly in agriculture and food security, reflects both pragmatic policymaking and long-term vision. Yet, chronic challenges such as low productivity, outdated farming practices, weak infrastructure and high post-harvest losses have constrained its true potential. These initiatives are not merely symbolic; if implemented effectively, they can enhance productivity, strengthen food security and expand export capacity, while fostering mutual trust between the two nations. Ultimately, the success of Pakistan–China agricultural cooperation will depend on consistent policy implementation, transparency and local capacity building. If matched with effective governance and farmer inclusion, this partnership can transform Pakistan’s agricultural landscape, reinforce food security and contribute to regional economic stability.
